Default Bad gas mileage and an engine tick

Besides my faint tick tick tick in my engine(valves?) , I also can hear it up under the drivers side wheel well (exhaust leak?) I have horrible gas mileage according to my navi screen , it says I'm getting 12 mpg is this normal? Could this be the reason behind my tick? I got an appointment Monday for a valve adjustment, I do not wanna spend $700 on an adjustment.....

Dude... you are making another thread for the same reason?

If you have read my advise you would have known by now you needed valve adjustments.
